A method and system are provided for manufacturing a physical dental model. A virtual model is provided representative of at least a portion of the intra-oral cavity including at least one dental implant implanted therein, and the virtual model includes a virtual portion representative of each dental implant. The virtual spatial disposition of each such virtual portion is determined with respect to the virtual model, corresponding to a real spatial disposition of the respective implant with respect to the intra oral cavity. A physical model is then manufactured based on the virtual model, the physical model including a physical analog corresponding to each implant at a respective physical spatial disposition with respect to the physical model corresponding to the respective virtual spatial disposition of the respective virtual portion with respect to the first virtual model as already determined. In some embodiments, a jig is provided configured for maintaining a desired physical spatial disposition between the physical analog and a cavity of the physical dental model at least until the physical analog is affixed in the cavity.本發明提供一種製造一實體牙模之方法及系統。本發明提供代表包括至少一個植入口內腔中的牙科植入物之口內腔中至少一部分的一虛擬模型,且該虛擬模型包括代表各牙科植入物之一虛擬部分。確定每個該虛擬部分相對於該虛擬模型之虛擬空間佈置,該虛擬空間佈置對應於相應植入物相對於口內腔之真實空間佈置。然後根據該虛擬模型來製造一實體模型,該實體模型以相對於該實體模型之相應實體空間佈置包括對應於各植入物之一實體類似物,該實體空間佈置對應於相應虛擬部分相對於已確定之第一虛擬模型之相應虛擬空間佈置。在某些實施例中,提供一夾具,其係經構造為至少在實體類似物附著於腔中之前維持實體類似物與實體牙模腔之間之期望實體空間佈置。200‧‧‧系統210‧‧‧輸入介面或模塊220‧‧‧輸出器件或顯示構件或模塊230‧‧‧處理單元或模塊/實體類似物235‧‧‧記憶體250‧‧‧掃描儀260‧‧‧電腦系統280‧‧‧製造系統
